Abstract

The present invention provides a split-type mobile terminal which includes a host and at least one sub-device connected to the host. Wherein, the host includes: a state obtaining unit ( 102 A) configured to obtain a real-time state of the host when a communications event occurs in the host; a state determining unit ( 102 B) configured to determine whether or not the real-time state is a preset interactive state; a data interacting unit ( 102 C) configured to send a response command to at least one of the at least one sub-device if the determining result is yes; and a host processing unit ( 102 D) configured to directly respond to the communications event if the determining result is no. Each sub-device includes a sub-device processing unit ( 1040 ) configured to respond to the communications event according to the received respond command. The present invention further provides an interaction processing method for a communications event.

6. The split-type terminal of claim 1 , wherein the host further comprises:

a type obtaining unit configured to obtain the type of the communications event;

a type determining unit configured to determine whether or not the communications event is an interactive type;

wherein, when the communications event is the interactive type and the real-time state is the preset interactive state, the data interacting unit transmits the response command to at least one of the at least one sub-device, otherwise the host processing unit directly responds to the communications event.

7. The split-type terminal of claim 1 , wherein the host further comprises:

a condition determining unit configured to determine whether or not the at least one sub-device satisfies the response condition for the communications event;

the data interacting unit is further configured to transmit the response command to at least one of the at least one sub-device if the determination result generated by the condition determining unit is yes;
